How can I use Localytics side by side with another geofencing or beacon service?

On iOS, the OS only allows 20 regions to be monitored per app simultaneously. Localytics will manage all 20 by default, which guarantees the SDK can trigger all nearby geofences as the user moves around.

For customers that want to run their own geofencing or beacon logic independently of Localytics, but still want to use Localytics automatic geofence management, you can configure Localytics to use fewer geofences than the default.

This is usually only necessary if self-managing on iOS; on Android the SDK only uses 20 geofences even though Google Play Services allows up to 100. To do this, you need to pass a configuration option of max_monitoring_regions to the SDK before Places initialization.
